    With a win tomorrow and a Pelicans win, the magic number gets down to 2. Let's get it done.

    Aminu had 20 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 blocks. We'll need that again tomorrow.

    I think the Pelicans are officially eliminated from the playoffs if they lose tomorrow, so there is incentive for them to give their best effort and try to win that game.

    Didn't get to watch but I'm assuming not having Nurk is what killed us.

    Yes, but there was still more than enough if either CJ or Dame had not been ice cold.

    Actually, Aminu played well at C but Dame & CJ couldn't shoot.

    Or looking at the box score, if Leonard did anything against Towns.

    Meyers is utter dog shit. We've payed for that douche bags jeeps, trucks, and doggy surgeries for too long. We need to Moe Harkless his ass this summer and trade him for a non existent draft pick.

    If Nurk can't go in the playoffs, I'm hoping Denver can sneak in past us. While I was rooting for a win tonight, I wasn't heartbroken once Dame's game-winner rolled off the rim. We're such a different team without Nurk and I want no part of the playoffs if he isn't playing. On the bright side, that loss moved us from No. 17 to No. 16 in the draft .... that was disheartening just typing that last part out, I thought we were past that shit. This Nurk injury is a body blow, guys ...

    We should beat the Timberwolves they said.

    We have an easy schedule I was told.

    How quickly we forget how bad we were pre Nurkic. We weren't horrible, but it just serves as a reminder that the rest of the schedule is no gimme and we still have to fight hard just to make the playoffs.

    I'm not sure Kat scores 14 was it? points in the 4th quarter if Nurk is playing.
    But yes Aminu for having to defend a bigger player, who is also the other teams best player did well.
    Just too small to keep Kat from getting post position if they're going to allow him to push off every time.

    Well Neil guess what your job this off season is find us a good backup center and find away to get rid ML. Don't come back and tells he was hurt at the end that crap to work any more.

    Aminu is a better center than Meyers is.
